A special telegram from Wahpeton

A special telegram from Wahpeton
says: 60
There is a small war in wheat rates
on two roads between Minneapolis
and Wahpeton. The Manitoba road
has two lines running in here. The
Minneapolis g. Pacific has built line
between the lines of the Manitoba.
When the new road began business
about six weeks ago, cut of 81 cents
per hundred for wheat shipments
was made. The elevators on the
Manitoba road were all full, and the
grain men wanted tho Manitoba to
carry wheat for the reduced rate.
This tie Manitoba refuse to do,
claiming, it is said, that the wheat
was stored In tho elevators when the
Old rates were in force, and must be
carried out at the old rates. Mean.
while wheat had been gong 10 the
Minneapolis & Pacific road for trans
portatiOn. Quite war in prices was
stirred up at one or two towns along
the lines, al, d in one place the price was
run up as high as dollar u bushel.
One of the new elevator companies
sent agents through the country and
contracted with the 'armers for their
wheat at 60 cents per bushel. This
wheat was hauled during the war OF
prices, and lively bidding ran the
price up as high as 81 per Lushel. The
parties who had contracted tor the
wheat did so with a distinct under
standing with the farmers that the
contract price only was to be paid.
After IL delivery there would be IA
change of drivers, and the load OF
wheat would be taken to the other
elevators and sold at 80 cents Il bush
ell. While one company Wa,
sizing up the other as a set Of fools
for paying dollar bnsheI for wheat,
the new company was clearing II
cents bushel on the same grain and
making it out OF its rivals.

1t is a common expression among
merchants that business is so dull
it will hot pay to advertise" What
would we think of the working man
who, when work is scarsce, would
not try all the harder to find it? The
duty of the merchant or manufacturer
at such times is to create business
by Offering new and attractive styles,
by seeking new customers, and push
ing Beyond neighborhhood limits.
He should not sit down and wait for
trade to come to him, but seek it on
every side and through the nse of
every lawful instrumentality. When
trade is dull a. more active exertion
must be m ade to secure it than when
business Is brisk. When times are
flush and money plentiful it requires
but little effort to sell goods. There
is not SO much need Of advertising
at such times.-E:r.
